  1. Re:Sorry - Apple is still dying. on Apple Sells Nine Million iPhones Over Weekend · · Score: 1

    Did you actually read one word of the article above???? If you did, did you actually try to understand it????

  2. Re:Good Question on What's Stopping Us From Eating Insects? · · Score: 1

    Are you 12? You're mother should teach you some manners.

  3. Good Question on What's Stopping Us From Eating Insects? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    It's all in our heads. We choose to eat some animals (like cows) and not others (like cats) because of cultural reasons. Same with insects.

  4. Re:Interesting on Neuroscientist: First-Ever Human Head Transplant Is Now Possible · · Score: 1

    Check out a movie called "The Sixth Day". You're idea? :-)

  6. Re:On the other end... on Groupon Still Losing Money, CEO Is Fired And Leaks Final Email · · Score: -1, Troll

    Nice post a AC, but you're wrong on all counts. If you weren't AC I'd take the time to explain why.

  7. Re:I left Linux for OS X... on Ask Slashdot: What Distros Have You Used, In What Order? · · Score: 1

    I wish I had mod points to Mod you up.

    +1 So true

    I too went from Windows to Linux to OSX. Windows just sucked (Vista). Linux had little to mainstream support. OSX was the solid choice. Been on Mac OSX since Tiger.

  8. Re:disarm the planet on Venezuela Bans the Commercial Sale of Firearms and Ammunition · · Score: 1

    Great... and when the aliens attack on July 4th we'll club them to death?

  9. End Relgions on In Nothing We Trust · · Score: 0

    The best thing we can do is to eliminate religions. All of them. Religions have been responsible for stoping progress, scientific discoveries, medical improvements, etc., while at the same time being responsible for the deaths of millions.

  10. Re:Non-obvious? on Amazon Patents Deducing Religion From Gift Wrap · · Score: 1

    Agreed. We need massive patent reform when something as obvious as this is patentable. Absolutely ridiculous.

  11. Re:Apple Airport Extreme on Ask Slashdot: Best Flash-Friendly Router To Replace Aging WRT54GS? · · Score: 2

    I second this. I have 50/50 Fios and tried every stupid Linksys, Dlink, Buffalo and other router you could find and they all wound up crashing constantly under a load.

    I finally got an Apple Airport Extreme and I can use my full 50mb with zero crashes. IT JUST WORKS. That's Apple for you.

  12. Re:Desktop Apple ain't going anywhere on Could Apple Kill Off Mac OS X? · · Score: 1

    "he wanted the first edition of the iMac to ship without a keyboard" - Citation Needed.

    As I recall, he wanted to remove the function keys and the number pad (which they later did!). Not the entire keyboard!

  13. Re:Hot spot feature a rip off on IOS 4.3 Now Available For Download · · Score: 1

    I emailed Steve Jobs and asked him why we needed to pay for this. His reply... short and sweet:

    "Ask the carriers.

    Sent from my iPad."

    So now my attack of emails will go to AT&T.

    Asshat.

  15. Re:Not a 2 on iPad 2 Rumored to be in Production · · Score: 1

    No... and Apple never made an iPhone 3 or iPhone 4 either. Oh.. Wait. They did.

  16. Fake on DSL Installation Fail · · Score: 1, Informative

    Fake...and he's already removed the pic from Picassa and backpedalled it being quest.

    I hate to post this on slashdot... -5 TROLL here I come... but it's true.

    Just like Biden said... everyone should have a 2500sq ft or less house... as soon as Al Gore, and Biden sell their mansions and move to a 2500sq ft house, I might listen to them.

    Mod parent up!

  19. Re:Old issue / no longer an issue on Beware of Using Google Or OpenDNS For iTunes · · Score: 1

    Not true! I just had this issue the other day. My AppleTV was telling me it was going to take 3 hours to download an episode of The Office. I rebooted it twice. Same thing. I manually set the DNS to my own Ubuntu Box (instead of OpenDNS it was getting from my Cisco 891), rebooted and the download took 2 minutes and 50 seconds (50/50 FiOS). This is clearly still an issue.

  20. Re:Adkeeper on A New Idea, For People Who Want To See More Banner Ads · · Score: 1

    No. You visit the page where the ad takes you to... and bookmark THAT.

  21. Adkeeper on A New Idea, For People Who Want To See More Banner Ads · · Score: 2

    I hate to say it, but I've actually wished in the past I could save an ad for later. But then I realized I could just click the ad and use the "bookmark this page" in my browser. Derp.

  22. Re:They'll still filter ports on Verizon Speeds Up FiOS To 150Mbps · · Score: 1

    That's exactly what they do if you get the small business package. I am getting 50/35 in Keller, TX with 5 IPs and zero blocks or filters for $99 a month. I have over 40 websites running on the connection. I've had it for 5 years and not one single outage, ever.

  23. Maybe you should resign? on Best IT-infrastructure For a Small Company? · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I mean seriously. Have you considered resigning? You don't know what you're doing and asking slashdot for instructions?

    "feet modeled on the intricate design of gecko toes"

    Interesting. I thought they evolved. ;-)

  25. Re:You will never be happy. on Apple In Talks To Bring $0.99 TV Rentals To iTunes · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I know you are being a troll. But you are correct even if trolling.

    People will continue to say its not cheap enough and continue to pirate. Cost is just an excuse, in a list of otherwise silly excuses used to justify stealing content.
